Agatha, Lady Danbury is the grandmother of Gareth St. Clair.
History[]
1813[]
Lady Danbury hosted a ball that the Bridgerton family attended. Lady Danbury cornered Anthony, Benedict, Colin, and Daphne at one point, and mentioned that Nigel Berbrooke was looking for Daphne. Lady Danbury told Daphne that she didn't tell Berbrooke where she was, and then left. She then found Portia Featherington trying to introduce her daughters to Simon Basset, and made them leave, but not before letting Simon feel awkward about being introduced to eligible young women.
1814[]
Lady Danbury was one of the ladies who visited Kate Sheffield and her family after she became engaged to Anthony. She bluntly said that she knew Kate trapped him into marriage, but said that other young ladies could learn from her.
Lady Danbury came across Anthony while he was riding in Rotten Row, and quickly stopped him, saying she approved of him marrying Kate over her sister, Edwina. Before she could say any more, the two of them saw a carriage carrying Kate and Edwina suddenly crash.
1815[]
Lady Danbury was at the Bridgerton masquerade ball, and stopped Benedict to talk to him while he was trying to chase after Sophie Beckett.
1824[]
Lady Danbury attended Violet Bridgerton's birthday ball, and lamented that the social season had been boring.[2] She announced that she would give £1,000 to whoever unmasked Lady Whistledown.[3] During the Macclesfield ball, Cressida announced that she was Lady Whistledown.[4] Cressida tried to collect her reward, but Lady Danbury was skeptical and demanded proof, which Cressida agreed to provide within a fortnight.[5] Cressida's plan backfired after a new issue of Lady Whistledown branded Cressida as a scheming imposter.[6]
